The Soviet Union produced a variety of soft drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Among the latter, of course, sweet sodas were very popular: for example, the famous “Bell”, “Cream Soda”, “Tarragon”, “Citro” and others.
In addition, their own drinks – original and authentic – were made in different Soviet republics. Georgia was one of the centers for the production of soft drinks. It, for example, invented analogues of Pepsi and Fanta – lemonades “Bahamian” and “Arad».
Unusual lemonades were also produced in the Uzbek SSR: lemonade was made there “Bouquet“- from infusion of coriander and other ingredients, as well as other sodas.
The Kazakh SSR also produced its own soft drinks. One of them – carbonated drink “Aigul”. The name of the drink is a Turkic female name, translated into Russian meaning “moon flower” (“ay” – moon, “gul” – flower).
The name Aigul is popular in the North Caucasus. And it is also worn by one of the heroines of the recent Russian hit – the series “The Boy’s Word. Blood on the asphalt.” Schoolgirl Aigul, played by young actress Anna Peresild, in the story falls in love with a member of the “Universam” group and the younger brother of the gang leader. The head coach of the Russian national team, Valery Karpin, admitted in an interview with Sport24 that the scene of Aigul’s death made him cry.
According to the label, “Aigul” cost 15 kopecks and was stored for no more than seven days. Unfortunately, apart from the label, we have not received any information about this soda: what was included in its composition, what its taste was. However, the presence of the label proves that the Aigul drink really existed in the USSR. If you have tried it, tell us in the comments what “Aigul” tasted like!
